Anyone working on implementing AccessCheck?
by Michael Ost 27 Apr '05

27 Apr '05

We have an installer program (for the Native Instruments Komplete VST plugin package) that fails to run because NtAccessCheck is stubbed out --- that's our best guess at this point, anyway, from watching the WINEDBG trace while the program ran. I noticed that in the last few months someone implemented GetFileSecurity that the installer uses as well --- it looks like Troy Rollo? from scanning the cvs archives. Thanks for that. But NtAccessCheck is still stubbed out. Is that call at all related? any work underway? any suggestions on direction for implementing it? And, how seriously should I take the FIXME("returns fake SECURITY_DESCRIPTOR") in GetFileSecurity. Thanks... mo =================================== Michael Ost, Software Architect Muse Research, Inc. most(a)museresearch.com

Regressions from 20050310 to 20050419 for PCAD-2000 application
by Marcos Vicente Cruz 27 Apr '05

27 Apr '05

Hi, I've notice a regression using some PCAD applications together. If you open more then two PCAD's apps at same time the last one freezes. For example if I open Schematic and PCB it works flawlessly but opening Library Executive one of the others freezes until you close the last opened. It happens only using 20050419 version of wine. In the other hand this version doesn't have a focus bug that forced starting a PCAD application from a Desktop window. Best Regards Marcos

CDMA PCMCIA cards on WINE?
by NSK 27 Apr '05

27 Apr '05

Hello, Somebody from SuSE mailing list told me to send an e-mail to winehq regarding this: I have a Vodafone GPRS/3G (CDMA) PCMCIA card. I tried running Vodafone's software in WINE emulation but it is impossible (it crashes). Is there anything I can do about this? Here is more info about this hardware: # lspci -vv 0000:02:00.0 USB Controller: OPTi Inc. 82C861 (rev 10) (prog-if 10 [OHCI]) Subsystem: OPTi Inc. 82C861 Control: I/O- Mem+ BusMaster- SpecCycle- MemWINV- VGASnoop- ParErr- Step ping- SERR- FastB2B- Status: Cap- 66Mhz- UDF- FastB2B+ ParErr- DEVSEL=medium >TAbort- <TAbort - <MAbort- >SERR- <PERR- Interrupt: pin A routed to IRQ 0 Region 0: Memory at 2f800000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) The card seems to incorporate a USB circuit which somehow is connected to an internal antenna, most probably via some sort of modem. The card had labels "Qualcomm CDMA" and "Manufactured by Opti". After searching on the Internet I found the site of Qualcomm ( http://www.cdmatech.com/ ) but I don't know which chipset the card uses. It can connect to both GPRS and CDMA networks but it doesn't work in USA (only in EU). Its datarates are 384kbits downstream and 64kbits upstream (I think). Vodafone supports this card only on Windows. The card is locked until the software transmits a PIN code that I type. I am afraid that even if I make this hardware work on GNU/Linux, I won't know how to transmit my PIN to unlock it. Thanks, -- NSK http://portal.wikinerds.org

Re: Hierarchical namespace for tests

unix filenames in notepad
by Michael Jung 27 Apr '05

27 Apr '05

If you apply the attached patch and import the attached registry file (which registers a junction point for the unixfs shell namespace extension), you can select and open files from the unix filesystem in notepad (The file has to be accessible by a drive letter based wine path though). In retrospect this is not as surprising as I first thought. If I pay for some beer, perhaps at wineconf someone can give me some insight on the unix path <-> wine path conversion magic ;) Bye, -- Michael Jung mjung(a)iss.tu-darmstadt.de

[Bug 2097] Unable to start game Rites of War
by Stephen Torri 27 Apr '05

27 Apr '05

Can a developer take a look at Bug #2097? I need some assistance on figuring our what is wrong with this game. In particular I would like to have someone that can tutor me in trouble shooting problems running applications. I want to be more of an active solution contributor than a problem generator. Stephen

Window don't stay minimized problem
by Vitaliy Margolen 27 Apr '05

27 Apr '05

I'm still having this problem. Here is what I found so far: - All Delphi apps don't minimize properly because they depend on WM_SYSCOMMAND SC_MINIMIZE, SC_RESTORE etc. - If I insert these messages before WM_SHOWWINDOW in X11DRV_MapNotify / X11DRV_UnmapNotify it still doesn't work. App makes few more steps but does not minimize. Instead it changes size of the main window and shows an extra window (hidden Delphi Application window). - Comparing messages received by app I see WM_ACTIVATEAPP sent prematurely and WM_KILLFOCUS too late. Does any one have suggestions where to insert this messages? Also, could someone enlighten my on how and where do we handle window management stuff? I see to many places (server, x11drv, user). I guess what I'm trying to find how they all are link together? Here is a comparison of messages received by hidden application window while handling minimize request. wine native WM_SYSCOMMAND SC_MINIMIZE WM_SYSCOMMAND SC_MINIMIZE Minimize start WM_QUERYNEWPALETTE WM_ACTIVATEAPP WM_WINDOWPOSCHANGING WM_NCACTIVATE WM_NCACTIVATE WM_ACTIVATE WM_ACTIVATE WM_SETFOCUS WM_SETFOCUS WM_WINDOWPOSCHANGING WM_WINDOWPOSCHANGING WM_NCCALCSIZE WM_NCCALCSIZE WM_WINDOWPOSCHANGED WM_WINDOWPOSCHANGED WM_MOVE WM_MOVE WM_SIZE WM_SIZE WM_KILLFOCUS WM_GETTEXT WM_WINDOWPOSCHANGING WM_WINDOWPOSCHANGING WM_NCCALCSIZE WM_NCCALCSIZE WM_WINDOWPOSCHANGED WM_WINDOWPOSCHANGED WM_MOVE WM_MOVE WM_SIZE WM_SIZE WM_NCACTIVATE WM_GETTEXT WM_ACTIVATE WM_ACTIVATEAPP Minimize end WM_WINDOWPOSCHANGING WM_WINDOWPOSCHANGED WM_MOVE WM_NCACTIVATE WM_ACTIVATE WM_KILLFOCUS -- Best regards, Vitaliy

msn webcam status
by Maarten Lankhorst 26 Apr '05

26 Apr '05

just thought I'd drop by and say how things are going.. i submitted a lot of patches already, and trying to get those commited, although they are not directly required for webcam support, they are meant to increase general stability, and fix some bugs: - dlls/avicap32: wrote a basic capgetdriverdescription (Trying to get it committed) - dlls/devenum: wrote videoinputdevice enumeration based on capgetdriverdescription (Trying to get it committed) - dlls/quartz: wrote some general fixes for filtergraph.c/pin.c added capturegraphbuilder interface (Trying to get those committed) of course, there's also the vfwcapture interface itself, after trying to get it to work with a real webcam, instead of the very flexible bttv driver, i came to the conclusion i needed to do some major background changes the vfwcapture interface itself won't change, because that part is now near perfect, but the stuff behind it is messy on itself, the interface is not useful, it needs the other fixes I posted above, so now I'm just waiting until those patches are implemented, my disk is getting too full with all those patches (only semi joking, i'm losing track of them..)
